Super-Sturdy Tomato Cages Support Heavy Yields

Longtime customer favorites, our heavy-duty, galvanized steel tomato cages are taller, wider and stronger than old-fashioned cone-shaped supports. And unlike flimsier versions, these are strong enough to support full-grown vines loaded with tomatoes. The tomato cages support plants on all sides (no tying needed) and keep plants up off the ground for better air circulation, cleaner fruit and fewer diseases. Large openings make harvesting easy, and the cages fold flat for off-season storage. In windy locations, we recommend anchoring with our Extra-Tall Earth Staples, sold separately.

These cages supported all the different types of tomatoes that I planted without bending and withstood a couple of severe summer storms. They also fold flat and therefore take up little space in the garden shed. The first set I bought is still in good shape and will now be used for a third growing season.

We first bought these tomato cages about 20 years ago. They have been used regularly since then. We just bought some new ones not to replace the old ones, but to add to them. Loved that we could get them in green, now.

I bought a set of these cages last year and loved them. I bought another set this year, and next year I'll buy another set until I have enough for my entire garden. Easy to use, easy to store away. Never have to stake and tie up another plant. During the winter, when I don't have a garden, I use them around some of my smaller plants that need to be covered during a freeze. I can cover the cage with a blanket, garbage bag, etc.

These cages are definitely stronger than the cheap ones that are available. They will definitely last longer, so they are a good value. The cheap ones may only last a year and get so out of shape and let the plants fall over. My garden is small and I have to put my plants closer together, so each plant is more upright and defined.

These are great tomato cages. I also use them for my green peas and as support cages for my bell peppers. They could be a little taller so that I wouldn't have to stack them three high for the tomatoes. I purchased my first cages from Gardners supply over 10 years ago and am still using those cages. Had to buy more since I expanded my garden space.

Bought these on sale at the end of last season. Installed them at the appropriate time (rather than trying to rescue weighted down vines!) and everything grew right into them. They are lightweight, I hope they will clean off & store for several years to get my money's worth out of them. So far I'm very pleased with this purchase.
